BosToN, Sept 2-It was Boyles turn to pitch
to-day, but this morning it was fouid that his
slight indisposition of yesterday had developed
Into symptoms of fever. and it was necessary to
have physician. The medicine he took appar-
emily did him good, for this evening he is con-
siderably better, and hopes to be able
TO play in day or two. Healy want in to pitch.
and, as has been the case all season when he was
put against the Bostons, he was hit hard and
often. In the second inning, hits by
Hornupg, Morrill,, Burdock and Madden
gave them two earned runs In the
fifth, hits for two bases each by
Johnston and Burdock gave them another run.
In the sixth, hits by the same players and Tate,
Wise and Sutton gave them three more and IN
the eighth two hits, aided by Shomberg's muff
and wild throw, gave them two more. The
Hoosiers scored four runs in the fourth inning,
after Seery had struck out. Denny hit for two
bases to left field and scored on Shombergs
single. The latter crossed the plate on singles
by Glasscock and Brown. Bassett got to first
on balls and Gardter, the new man, brought in
two runs by a safe liner past second. That ended
the run-gettng Until the ninth inning, when
Brown hit the ball pretty nearly out the corpo-
tinguished himself by catching a fine game,
having only wild throw, and making two
clean hits. The Hoosers' only errors, aside
from this, we're Shomberg's wild throw and
muf. Basse:t and Glasscock did fine fielding.
In to-morrovs game Shreve will probably have
10 go in to pitch again. if Boyle is not able to
play. Fielder McGeachy joined the club here
to-day, and will 60 to Plttsburg with it to-mor-
row night. He is reinstated, and the question
of his fine will be settled as
he goes back to Indianap oils. He says he has
been confined to his home by sickness for two
weeks, and he looks it, for he is pale and thin.
He is better now. however.
The HaVerhIll Eastern League Clue disbanded
yesterday. Frank Gardner, their crack player,
came through here to-day, en- route to Washing
ton. having received dispatch from Manager
Gaffney to join that club at once. Manager
Fogel got wind of it and signed Gardner for the
Indianapolis club, and he played in to-days'
game. taking everything that came his way and
bringing in two runs by line hit in the fourth
inning. Gardner will be remembered as having
played with the Philadelphia and Baltimore
clubs in 1884 and 1885. He was little reckless
then. but has not drunk drop this year, and is
playing fine ball. He is good infeder as well
as outfielder, and hard hitter. There is
possibility that Johnson will be released al
though it is not settled yet He is promising
young player, but hardly up to the strength of
The club.
When Bassett the Indianapolis second base
man, came to the bat the first time to-day, Um-
pire Powers called time and then presented him
with fine diamond stud and gold headed cane,
